I don't know why people keep saying this is meant for kids. I'd say anyone over 30 will enjoy this fun trip to the style of movies we enjoyed in the 80s to late 90s. The show starts a little slow, but picks up after a few episodes. If anything the pacing seems a little rushed in the last three episodes of the first season. The CGI is a little rough and the acting isn't perfect. This is very much a family friendly show and so much so I feel the combat scenes really suffer. With all the fighting and weapons used to fight you aren't going to see one drop of a blood or anyone actually make contact with anything other than poles. If you are expecting a serious and deep story about Sun Wukong or any other actual characters from mythology you are going to be disappointed. Instead gather the family and friends and kick back for a great show.

Alone in the Dark
(2005)
Completely horrible!
27 January 2005
The movie starts out with some scrolling text which takes nearly five minutes. It gives the basic summary of what is going on. This could have easily been done with acting but instead you get a scrolling text effect. Soon after you are bombarded with characters that you learn a little about, keep in mind this is ALL you will learn about them. The plot starts to get off the ground and then crashes through the entire movie. Not only does the plot change, but you might even ask yourself if your watching the same movie. I have never played the video game, but know people who have. From my understanding whether you've played the game or not this movie does not get any better. Save your money unless you like to sleep at the theaters.
